Acknowledgements
I acknowledge, that Yellowbird is a small business and Casual employment is directly linked to NDIS participant funding. Yellowbird does not offer casual conversion.
*
Yes
NDIS participants and/or their guardians/representatives have the choice and control to choose who their service provider is and what worker they will or will not work with from that service provider. As a small business, we do not have the economy of scale that larger NDIS providers have. As participants can leave at any time, or choose not to work with a specific worker.
I acknowledge, that casual employment is NOT covered by the unfair dismissal laws. This is because the casual contract is a contract for a specified time, task or season.
*
Yes
Employees employed under a casual contract of employment for a specified period of time, a specified task, or the duration of a specified season who are dismissed at the end of the period, task or season.

I acknowledge, at any time, a participant or their guardian/representative has the right to choose an alternative worker and/or a provider. As a result I may be removed from the roster. There may be no alternative shifts to offer.
*
Yes
Yellowbird will not breach confidentiality, and therefore if we have been requested to remove a worker from the roster, reasoning behind a clients/guardians decision will not be provided.
I acknowledge, that I am required to enter my roster availability into the CRM app and keep it current at all times. I acknowledge that if not kept current, it is affect shifts offered.
